...February work by Masino and other officers resulted in 18 arrests. To keep the gangsters from returning, Masino and officer Brian Kornegay opened a substation in one of the units. They gave a cell phone to the woman whose phone lines had been cut. When Masino pulls up now in his patrol car, that woman's seven grandchildren, no longer confined to the house, climb into his car to play with the lights and loudspeaker...
...married and divorced twice. Her first husband was Benny Kornegay, a shipyard worker; her second, the jazz bassist Ray Brown. In the past decade, her many illnesses seemed incompatible with the bell-like clarity of her voice, one recognized by octogenarians and Generation Xers alike.

...Klan's "Achilles' heel"-its murky financial practices-there were hints that in coming weeks it would also be looking into the more lurid aspects of K.K.K. imperialism. Dragon Jones was questioned in vain about cross burnings and racist handbills that have been distributed in North Carolina. Kornegay took refuge in the familiar four amendments when confronted with a newspaper story quoting him as advocating "mass killings in Selma...
